  1. Well done, I took everything that my 6 visits to immigration last year was required only to be told more information required, armed with this new information returned, shocked to be told ok after a bit of gentle persuasion from my wife. Under consideration stamped in my passport happy days. 2 hrs later as we were nearly home, Immigration need more information copies of my bank book and another letter from the bank, ok we said, went to the bank got the information 1 hr drive back to immigration ok she said enough now. Got into the car just set off for home a call from immigration back to the car park and into the office, explain why your bank book does not show all transactions, I only update when I come here and not all transactions are recorded, that’s why you ask for the statements for 12 months I replied, ok next year I want to see all transactions in your book so get more updates ok I said and away we went. See you in a months time. 3 visits in one day.

  2. As a person who has stayed here  in Thailand for 8 years I’m making an offer to any family who are stuck in Thailand and can’t get home and are with little or no funds a room at my house until they can get home. Could I ask also other expats to make a similar offer in this time of need. I live in the Rayong area of Thailand, anyone who needs the offer is on a first come first served basis.

       How is it fraud , OP  brings the required amount into Thailand ,

         what he does  with that money is up to him . 

          A far better option than having a dodgy illegal  extension , using so called visa agents .

     

     

     

    Using an Agent now is not a good route, if immigration ask to see your funds what do you do, Panic, if they ask to see my book using this method they see 65,000 per month no problem.? I have to add I am doing the Marriage visa route as I have 45,000 into my account every month, this was a suggestion to help others, as many people have said I am not doing anything Illegal I am doing what is required as can many other people, the main reason why i suggested it was for us people who cant afford to have 400,000 Baht sat in a bank doing nothing here, this a way of getting what you want LEGALLY. It if Far Far more legal than using an agent. On the question of Income, as long as you transfer 65,000 per month from overseas they don't care how you got it some people say it has to be a pension, why, what about the people who rent their houses as income are you telling me these people will be excluded.

    A good video to watch is Kev in Thailand there is a place in Thailand for Cheap Charlies. Or do the Elite who stay here want Thailand all to themselves.

    Thank you all for your reply's.

  4.  I read with delight the reply' on this post, I have complied with the rules enforced, what I need to show and what I need to live on are two different things, yes their would be costs involved with this method, show me a way where you have no costs, we all have to live with the necessary evil of bank transfers Agents, you now run the risk of inspection of your bank account, how would you explain that? Thailand does not do Free.

    i love this country its rules regulations, Thailand will always belong to Thailand. The U.K. Belongs to every other country but England, The USA is owned by China, Russia. We all come here for a better life, I have got that here dispite the new imposed rules, My glass is always half full.

     

  5. Thanks for your Comment, I have lived here in Thailand 6 years now, I have not broken any rules i have complied with every request the Immigration requires over this 6 year period. Circumstances have changed, my Embassy stooped verifying my income from the UK My income was over 800,000 per year, its up to me how much I need to live on so I only drew 45,000 Baht per month.

    But now my situation is that I need to show 65,000 per month as do many others, my way does not break any rules, its not cheating the system, i'm not going via an agent it complies with what they require. I have decided to go the Marriage visa way, a much harder way than my Retirement visa because I comply with what they want an income of 44,000 Baht per month. I was told i needed to show this every month.

    The Immigration have been more than fair with me I asked what they needed and still they turned me down, giving me another 60 days to get what I needed. which is a reasonable amount of time to achieve this.

    Follow the rules of this Country it's their Country not yours.
